This devotional is excerpted from Mornings of Peace in the Presence of God.

God thinks highly of you, and at the very moment you started praying, I was sent to give you the answer.  Daniel 9:23 (CEV)

Often it is in the early morning hours when you are reminded of your most cherished, private prayers.  The thought flickers in your mind, Is today the day that God answers me?  Will I see my deepest longing fulfiled?

God’s response is the same as the angel reported to Daniel—at the very moment you started praying, He began to answer.

You may see God’s answer today, but be encouraged even if you don’t.  Be assured that God has heard your prayer and He has sent His mighty power and provision in response to it.  His help is on the way.  Trust Him—His answers are always right.

Dear God, thank You so much for answering my prayer.  Though I may not see Your provision today, I praise You that it is definitely coming.  Amen.
